Flowers for the Household.

Ii we have u flower garden, we want
the plants and shrubs TO harmonic with
their surroundings. In small yard
we would not want great beds of large
growing plants, like dahlias, cannas,
and hollyhocks. Where there is plenty
of room they look finely. If we live in
a rented house and have bit of n yard
the size of pocket handkerchief, we
want few ANIMALS and tender plants
that we can get the benefit of the first
season, and that will compare with the
size of our yard. In such case, rustic
stands. boxes. and large flower-pots
make the yard seem larger than if cut
up into flower beds. Geraniums, single
and double petunias, heliotrope, sweet
alyssum, ageratum, rose geranium, and
mignonette in the boxes and stands
will brighten up the bit of ground all
summer, and furnish us with many q
bunch of flowers for our vase beside.
If there is room for bed or border,
some easily grown ANNALS. like aster,
verbena, Drummond's phloX, marigold,
calendula, and larkspur, will give us Il
spot of continuous brightness all sum-
mer. Between the ANIMALS we will
four in group, planting the first about
the goth of May, and some more in two
weeks, so we may have n succession OF
these SNOWY bulbs. They are much
prettier in groups than if planted in a
stiff row, like soldiers on parade, all
dressed in scarlet and white. These
bulbs grow as'easily as potatoes, require
no petting, can be had in great variety
of coloring, and cheap in price, rang
ing from fifty cents dozen, upward.
If one has room, tlower-beds and
small shrubbery are great addition to
ones surroundings. | think many peo-
pie overdo. and get more plants than
they can well take care of or that look
well. 1t gives confused look, even TO
a large plot of ground, to see it all cut
up into tlower-beds. If grassed down
and few simple beds left for some
steady blooming plants, like geraniums,
petunias, heliotropes, abutilons, and
others, massing each kind by itself, the
effect is far better. Groups of dahliaS
Especially the single form), cannas
and hollyhocks can be added with good
effect.
A handsome specimen of palm, like
Seaforthia elegans or Latania Borboni-
ca, India rubber plant, Dracenas and
Agaves give the garden n tropical look
and add much beauty, if there is plenty
of room. If set too near each other,
one detracts from the beauty of the
other. If you have n handsome speci-
men plant, it needs handsome iron
vase. rustic pot, or something suitable
to grow in. Don't insult it by planting
it in paint keg, bedizened with red,
blue, or yellow paint, and ornamented

One broiling day in hot July,
John Adams said. long years gone By,
"This day, that makes a people free,
viii be the peoples jubilee:
" With games, guns, sports and shows displayed
With bells, pornp, bonfires and parade,
"O'er all this land from shore to shore,
From this time forth foreyermore."
The years passed ON, and by and by,
Mems hearts grew cold in hot July;
And one New England mayor said,
80 OF rockets am sore afraid:
:" And whose sends one up ablaze,
III send him UP for twenty days.
Then said the Mayor o'Day McQuade,
"Thayre NJ no made fur no perade."
And Mayor Hans Won Schwartzenmeyer
Proclaimed: I'm haf me no bomber"
Said Mayor Baptiste Raphael,
+" No make-a ring-a data bell"
90 BY gar" said Mayor Jean Crapaud,
I" Ills July games Will has to CO.,
And Mayor Knud Chrstoherrssonn
Cried, "Dieath to him who fires giunn!
At last said Mayor wun Lung See,
ITO muchee hoop-la bobberee."
And so the Yankee holiday
In 1900 passed away.
